Bend and Stretch Programs

One of the great hazards of aging is the danger of falling, even when traversing the familiar territory around the home. Health care professionals know that muscle strengthening, balance exercises, proper movement and stretch techniques can greatly reduce the possibility of falls and lead to a happier, healthier aging process. Bend and stretch clinics sponsored by VNA Northwest begin with evaluation by a physical therapist. The baseline data acquired in that assessment is then used to demonstrate the progress of the individual when the program ends. Participants find this a motivation to continue preventive exercises at home.
